A teen whose grandmother bought an insurance policy needs a legal guardian for two years to claim the payout and asks a person to help in exchange for half the money and expense repayment. When asked why she refused another offer, she says college is her priority and the other man would pay less. The potential guardian reluctantly agrees, takes two days off, and invites her to live with him in Overton while they file paperwork tomorrow. They move into his one-bedroom rental—she must take the couch or floor while he’s rarely home—leaving the guardianship and their uneasy coexistence unresolved.
